Arguably Kurosawa's most epic film (which of course is saying a lot). Not only does Ran have some of the most stunning battle sequences in Asian cinema, but it's themes of war, nihilism and family make it a great philosophical work as well.

The work of Shakespeare (it's a bit of an adaptation of King Lear) probably hasn't looked this good on the big screen since.

This review of Ran (1985) was written by on 08 Mar 2012.

Ran has generally received very positive reviews.
